    Homebrew diesel bikes

    http://www.dieselbike.net/Hamm08/Hamm08.htm

    Daihatsu turbo, yanmar; singles, twins and triples.

    Some of these efforts are quite amazing.

    I have been watching them for about a year. Some really cool machines being made.

    No one from the USMC at that rally. Otherwise there would have been some Hayes Diversified KLRs
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
    those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

    My mate Brian built a diesel powered bike a few years ago. There's a couple of articles linked on the Rusty Nuts site:

    I saw that at the Rakuria Sunset rally, ugly, but interesting
    "If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."
